Abstract

Background and Aim: The single-high-wire (SHW) system is a very productive trellis system suitable for the mechanization of cultural practices. It has been proposed as an adaptation strategy for mitigating the effects of global warming in warm and hot wine regions. The aim was to study the impact of different pruning severity treatments [16, 24 and 32 bud m−1 of productive cordon and simulated mechanical pruning (SMP)] on the performance of a Malbec SHW vineyard in a hot and arid region.

Methods and Results: The vineyard performance was assessed by means of characterizing the canopy architecture, winter trunk reserves, yield, fruit and wine composition. The variation of the pruning severity affected the architecture of the shoots but did not affect the canopy total leaf area. Lower pruning severity levels increased the number of smaller shoots and decreased the proportion of the leaf area corresponding to secondary shoots. After 3 years of treatment, bud fruitfulness and winter wood reserves were not adversely affected by lowering pruning severity. In general, it was observed that the lower the pruning severity, the higher the yield. Indeed, the lowest pruning severity level (SMP) increased the number of smaller clusters with fewer and smaller berries. Moreover, we found that pruning severity did not affect the berry’s anthocyanin and volatile organic compound profiles. Additionally, reducing pruning severity slightly decreased soluble solid accumulation and alcohol content of wines without affecting colour and acidity.

Conclusion: The cultivar Malbec trellised to the SHW system in a hot and arid region is able to self-regulate between vegetative and reproductive growth, attaining maximum yield without forfeiting quality at low pruning severity levels such as it is imposed by mechanical box pruning.

Significance of the Study: These findings support growing and managing Malbec on the SHW system with mechanized pruning in hot and arid regions.

炎热干旱区马尔贝克单线葡萄园刈割程度对其生产性能的影响
背景与目的:单高线(SHW)系统是一种适合机械化文化实践的高产格架系统。它已被提出作为一种适应策略,以减轻全球变暖对温暖和炎热葡萄酒地区的影响。目的是研究不同修剪强度处理[16、24和32芽m−1的生产围栏和模拟机械修剪(SMP)]对炎热干旱地区马尔贝克SHW葡萄园性能的影响。方法与结果:通过树冠结构、冬干储量、产量、果实和酒成分等指标对该葡萄园进行评价。修剪程度的变化对枝条的构型有影响,但对冠层总叶面积没有影响。较低的修剪程度增加了小芽的数量,降低了次生芽对应的叶面积比例。3年后,降低修剪程度对芽结果和冬季木材储量没有不利影响。总的来说,修剪程度越低,产量越高。事实上,最低的修剪严重程度(SMP)增加了果实更少、更小的小簇的数量。此外,我们发现修剪程度不影响浆果的花青素和挥发性有机化合物谱。此外,减少修剪的严重程度略微降低可溶性固体积累和酒精含量的葡萄酒,而不影响颜色和酸度。结论:在炎热干旱地区,采用SHW系统的马尔贝克品种能够在营养生长和生殖生长之间进行自我调节,在低修剪强度(如机械箱形修剪)下获得最大产量而不损失质量。研究意义:本研究结果为在高温干旱地区机械化修剪的SHW系统上种植和管理马尔贝克提供了依据。

期刊介绍: The Australian Journal of Grape and Wine Research provides a forum for the exchange of information about new and significant research in viticulture, oenology and related fields, and aims to promote these disciplines throughout the world. The Journal publishes results from original research in all areas of viticulture and oenology. This includes issues relating to wine, table and drying grape production; grapevine and rootstock biology, genetics, diseases and improvement; viticultural practices; juice and wine production technologies; vine and wine microbiology; quality effects of processing, packaging and inputs; wine chemistry; sensory science and consumer preferences; and environmental impacts of grape and wine production. Research related to other fermented or distilled beverages may also be considered. In addition to full-length research papers and review articles, short research or technical papers presenting new and highly topical information derived from a complete study (i.e. not preliminary data) may also be published. Special features and supplementary issues comprising the proceedings of workshops and conferences will appear periodically.
